April 25, 1945 - Somewhere in Germany

 Dear Sis:

Well how are you by this time? I am just fine as usual. Your mail is beginning to catch up with me, I got 6 yesterday, four from you and two from Mom. They were all written about the time Mom was over to your house.

As usual I don't know anything to write about. But I guess just a few lines is better than none. I haven't heard any late war news but it looks like we're going to be seeing the Russians soon. And I haven't heard any more about Berlin falling, but the Russians can't be far away from it.

You keep wondering where I am, and sometimes we move so fast I don't know where I am myself. But the last place I was at was Bamberg. I wish I could tell you more but we have to be at least 25 miles away from a place before we can write about it.

I never did get a chance to send that rifle to Jake. But maybe I will before the war is over.

Well I guess I had better close for this time. I will try to write soon again. Be good and don't worry about me.

Love,

"Bert"
